  • Are these baby peppers?

    I've just cut open a red pepper and found some green "growths" inside it. What are they and why please? Just very curious

        Thanks Scarlet I didn't know where to start with the Goggling! Here's a thing about "Internal Proliferation"! Doesn't sound very pleasant to me but, I'm not a pepper

                  And now for an update on the condition of the pepper's "internal proliferations" They are becoming softer and changing colour to red - definitely baby pepper-like
